As soon as the list of delegates was com
p!eted the following officers were elected
President \. r. Smith; Vice President, W.
f. Jordan: Secretary, j. w. Kelly: Assist
ant Secretary W. NJ Thomas. The Presi-
dent upon assuming the chair stated briefly
the objects of the convention. The mem
bers did not know exactly what direction
the proceedings should take and various
suggestions We're made. 1t was stated
that the object of the meeting
was to bring the clerks of the
different counties into closer relations with
each other. As the matter of costs and fees
was the most important thing likely to be
considered, 1t was suggested that several
committees be appointed to consider such
subjects as would come before the conven-
ton. Thereupon the following committees
We're named:
Committee on Clerks Duties-A. E. Ross,
z. ID. Harrison, b. e. Bee. \. II. Smith
Committee ON CostS-R. 7. Ross, Il. A
Nelson, w. II. Woodall.
Committee to Amend Section 3605 of the
Code-W. +. Reemer, .. Is. Patterson, a.

Committee on Divorce Cases--E A. Ross,

Committee ON Appeal Cases-W b. Burtz,

Several members expressed their views
regarding I he fee bill The prevailing idea
seemed to be that the fees are large enough.
but rattle" uncertain of collection in many
cases. There is much ambiguity in the verdi
ageof some sections of the bill, and these it is
desired 10 make clear and uumistukahie.
Again, there are diverse methods employed
in the various counties by the clerks in their
Office work, and il is one of the aims to in
duce the different clerks to act more in con.
cert than formerly. The afternoons pro
ceedingS partook Of the nature Of casual
impromptu talks, rather than formal de
bates There was pleasant inter
change of views ON sundry uueS-
tons. Before adjournment il was
decided that all the committees should be
consolidated into one committee, which
should meet at night and formulate all the
grievances and suggestions into a bill to be
presented to the Legislature. AT night this
committee held a protracted meeting and
discussed many of the sections Of the fee
bill, but failel u come to an agreement
upon all the points

clerk in the lobby OF the Kimball Eouse.

Tho Boom On.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
QUANAH, TEX, March 28.-The boom
which struck this place on the compile
ton of the railroad still continues, and is
daily gaining fresh impetus. The enter
prising citizens of the place have mani
tested their public spirit and the interest
they feel in "tne Chief of the Plains" by
having two public wells drilled
to the depth of 100 feet, one
on each of the most i'm
portant streets in the town, Johnson and
Mercer. They contain water to the depth
Of forty feet. The citizens will have wind
engines erected over them to bring it to
the surface.
Notwithstanding the protracted drouth,
which has retardiDg tendency in that
direction, the immigration to that section
of the Panhandle bordering on the Fort
Worth and Denver City Railroad will De
heavy this spring. Prospectors,
principally agriCulturists, are arriving at
this point by hundreds, and are either
looking for locations in this immediate
vicinity or passing on to the front.
Three of the official members of the
Texas Oklahoma Homestead Colony and
Town Company, J J. Jones, President;
j. S. Works, General Agent, and T. P.
Rial, one of the directors, were here on
last Saturday prospecting for location
for their colony.

4 DESPERATE DEED.
a Daring Attempt at Bank Robbery and
Murder.

a Daring Attempt at Bank Robbery and
Murder.
ANTIGONISn, N. S, March 28-The at
tempted bank robbery and murder here
yesterday was one Of the most daring
acts in the criminal annals of Canada
The offender is said to have been the
principal in the bank robbery at Lewis
town, Me-, whence he escaped to Nova
Scotia. He gave his name as Stanley
Steele Of Guysboro, N. S. He came to
Antagonist Friday afternoon. The teller,
CurTIer. and the office boy were alone in
the bank when at II 80 Saturday Steele
entered. He said he would like to see
the teller in his private office. They re
tired to room, Steele closing the door
behind him. The roboer drew two revol-
vers and, pointing one at Curriers' head
and the other at his heart, called
on him to throw up his hands.
Currier is twenty-six years old,
six feet two inches, and a strong
wiry fellow. In throwing his hands up,
Currier sprang on his assail4nt At this
time Steele fred and q bullet struck Cur
rier in the forehead. A life and death
struggle ensued, Currier graphing with
the murderous burglar with desperation.
In the struggle Steele aimed a shot at
Curriers' heart and sent bullet in his
left side which came out OF his body and
lodged in the wall All this was done in
half a minute. McGill, a mere boy,
rushed into the private office and Steele
covered him with a revolver, and the boy
ran into the banking room, jumped the
counter and ran into an adjoining build
ing for assistance. score Of men
rushed to the rescue and Steele was Sc
cured. He was told Currier was dead and
received the news with the utmost COM
posture. He said that the first shot
which entered Curriers' head was fired
by accident, but when it came to mat
ter of life and death he determined to Kill
Currier. His original object was to
brighten Currier to silence by the revoIV-
ers, and after he fred he still thought he
could kill Currier, choke the boy, take
the money, rush to the station and get
away on the train, which would leave
soon. The bullet has been extracted from
Curriers' head and the doctors hope for
his recovery. Had Steele succeeded in
his desperate attempt he would have
secured 100000.

The Passengers of the Wrecked Steamer
Scotia Landed in a Famished Condition.
NEW YORK, March 28.-Five hundred
and nineteen Italian passengers OF the
wrecked steamer Scotia arrived on the
barge Haggerty at Castle Garden late yes
terdaY. The scene that followed beggars
description. They rushed pell NEIL into
the rotunda shrieking for food like raven
Gus wolves. They crowded around the
lunch tables, climbing over each other
and trampliDg on the helpless women and
children. Pandemonium reigned supreme
for fully an hour. 1t Is customary
to register all immigrants before they
enter the rotunda, but the red tape was
broken on this occasion by Su-
perintendent Jackson. The force
of the mass of people was so
great that the officers who were sta
toned to keep order were swept aside
like straws. The seething mass could
not be restrained and Superintendent
Jackson gave orders to give them all the
food they needed. Then the distribution
Officers began. 1t was impossible to reg
ulate the distribution. Strong men
crowded to the front with uplifted arms,
their eyes starting from their sockets, cry
ing IN Italian, "bresd, bread" The surging
mob was utterly uncomfortable. The

NEW ORLEANS, La, March %. - No
cotton can be moved from this city, as
the new council which Is on q strike en-
braces in its organization 8 class of
skilled labor which cannot be replaced.
At late hour Saturday the various
Weighers and classers received a written
notice from their employers, the factors
and buyers, that they would report for
work as usual this morning, otherwise
their services would be dispensed with.
The notice, however, had no effect, as
the Weighers, reweighers and classers
feel certain that their places cannot be
flied. The old cottonmen's council
stands firm in it's refusal to disband and
join the new council, and the situation is
serious. While the trouble continues no
cotton can be shipped or sold, and trade
is paralyzed.
